Description: Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time by Carroll Quigley First edition, first printing in unclipped dust jacket New York: The Macmillan Company, 1966. First edition. (All first printing points present: stated "First Printing" on copyright page, no mention of later publisher Angriff Press, full page count, does not state "First published in 1966 by" on title page.) xii, 1348 pp. Bound in publisher's navy cloth with gilt spine lettering. Dust jacket shows moderate wear. Writing on top page ends. Clean, tight and unmarked pages. Secure binding. An attractive copy. Professor Carroll Quigley's magnum opus, a world history of power with a focus on the Anglo-American elite. In many ways Quigley was a complex bundle of contradictions: a conservative defender of Western civilization who opposed the Vietnam War and was Bill Clinton's mentor at Georgetown. During the early cold war he was a true Washington insider who worked as a consultant for the Defense Department, the Navy, and other government entities, but his work is most often referenced by perennial outsiders like the John Birch Society and conspiracy researchers like the late Jim Marrs.
